Helping spread the word Cancer survivor helps raise money for Relay for Life

BY BELINDA M. PASCHAL Civitas Media bpaschal@civitasmedia.com Having Stage 2 colon cancer two years ago at the age of 28 was the impetus for Kevin Schmitz to give back to those who helped him and to help those going through what he experienced.

“Lying in the hospital bed talking to doctors about radia6 tion kind of opens your eyes to

PIQUA the real world,” said Schmitz, who lives in Piqua with his fiancee, Yvonne Lipps. “You more or less realize you want to get involved in helping through Relay for Life or Livestrong or anything that supports cancer research.”

Spurred by his own battle and a conversation with friend Krista Weldy, who already was involved with Relay for Life of Miami County, Schmitz became part of Team Generations, a participating team in the annual event that is the signature fundraiser for the American Cancer Society.

Schmitz has already raised

$1,600 in donations, putting him in the top three individual fundraisers in the county.

That’s a far cry from his original goal.

“At first, I was hoping to get $500, then in became $1,000, then $1,500. Once we starting getting close to the event, I didn’t think I was going to raise any more, but people have been very receptive to giving,” he said. “Plus I will talk to anybody and everybody about donating.”

Elementary and shared their stories of their family’s reliance on prayer during Marvin’s accident.

“Prayer made my brother better,” said Ben Major, a second grader at Troy Christian Elementary in front of the courthouse plaza.

Marvin Major Sr. shared how prayer empowered him and his family as Marvin Jr. was battling for his life.

“We were really fully reliant on God during this time,” Marvin Sr. shared with the crowd.

Marvin Sr. said the turning point of his son’s recovery was when a local pastor came to pray with him and members of their family, which he said, was “the moment God touched us.”

“We felt God’s presence in that room.

It was then we knew he was going to be OK,” Marvin Sr. said of the turning point in his son’s battle for his life.

Marvin Sr. said his son’s recovery is “a modern day miracle.”

Marvin Sr. said doctors could not explain how brain damage his son suffered called “shearing” seemingly disappeared overnight.

“Miracles are still happening in the modern times just as they did in the Bible,” Marvin Sr. said. “Remember to pray. Earnestly pray and believe.”

Troy Christian High School students led the crowd in worship songs and in prayer after the Major family spoke.

Senior Courtney Price said she prayed for her fellow students to “stay strong in their faith.”

“Seeing the entire student body come together to pray is just amazing,” Price said. “It’s so wonderful to see everybody unite in prayer.”

Senior Sarah Grady said she looks forward to the annual National Day of Prayer “to make a public display of our faith.”

“It’s really cool to come out here and pray in public here at the courthouse,” she said.

Senior Sam Justice said he prayed for each of his fellow classmates as they wind down their time in high school during the prayer session.

Daniels was finally stopped by stop spikes at mile marker 92 by Sidney Police Department officials.

Daniels was charged with OVI, failure to comply, failure to reinstate driver’s license, two counts of drug

abuse, open container and lanes of travel. Daniels had two unidentified pills and marijuana in her possession.

Daniels had a passenger in her vehicle at the time of the arrest but the name was not listed in the report and the person has not been charged at this time, Long said.

Don Willis, the former executive director of WACO historical society, said the task of creating such an aerospace program at the career center has been four years in the making, and a day he has especially been anticipating.

“It’s been four years of work since the time we originally conceived this, partnered up with the Upper Valley Career Center and got our grant from the Paul G. Duke Foundation,” Willis

“I’m just praying for each of my classmates for our futures as we go on our own paths and for God to protect us and use us to really change the world,” he said.

The 62nd annual National Day of Prayer’s theme was “Pray for America” with the Bible verse of Matthew 12:21.

The verse states: “In His name the nations will put their hope.”

said. “And it’s been three years of work after that to put the program together, hire an instructor, put equipment in the lab, and to get an airplane to work on. It’s the culmination of four years of efforts.”

He said the Paul G. Duke Foundation provided a threeyear grant to WACO, who then found volunteer aviation experts to help the career center in putting together the staff, the course and the training facilities.

In addition to the program, there is an aerospace lab and classroom, complete with a $12,000 flight simulator, and a hangar at the Sidney airport.

Fire/EMS levy on ballot Staff Reports

PIQUA

Residents of Washington Township will decide if a proposed fire/EMS levy passes or fails during the upcoming May 7 election.

Washington Township trustees are hoping the five-year, additional, 2 mill levy for fire and emergency medical services passes because they seek to continue “very good fire and EMS services” for the public, said Paul Holfinger, township trustee.

Holfinger said the levy is additional because “no

added millage has been voted since 1985, and paid since 1989.”

“The general fund now can not continue this fire and EMS contract as is,” he stated. “The general fund has received less and less dollars the last several years. … The local government fund from the state

Holfinger encouraged tax payers to consider voting for the levy.

PERSPECTIVE

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

ANALYSIS

Beijing to U.S. on North Korea — talk BEIJING (AP) — Embedded within Chinese leaders’ convoluted, yet vague statements to Washington about North Korea is a simple message: Talk with Pyongyang.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry’s weekend discussions with officials in Beijing offered up the usual encouraging but familiarly noncommittal language on North Korea, emphasizing Beijing’s desire to strike a balance between easing tensions on the Korean Peninsula while not appearing to side against its prickly communist ally Pyongyang.

But while neither side offered details of their exchanges, Beijing is communicating its strong desire for some form of direct contact between the U.S. and North Korea as a means of defusing the ongoing crisis over North Korea’s nuclear threats that have prompted a massive show of force by the U.S. and South Korea.

“North Korea wants to talk, so why not talk?” said Shen Dingli, a regional security expert and director of the Center for American Studies at Shanghai’s Fudan University. The question for China, Shen said, is how to make such discussions come about, adding that China is unlikely to make such calls too explicit for fear of putting either side in an embarrassing quandary.

Highlighting the difficulties of getting North Korea to talk with the U.S., the North rebuffed last week’s proposal by Seoul to resolve the tensions through dialogue. North Korea dismissed the proposal as a “crafty trick” to disguise what Pyongyang calls the South’s hostility, and said it won’t talk unless Seoul abandons its confrontational posture.

Chinese media reports on Kerry’s Saturday talks largely downplayed North Korea, and the Foreign Ministry’s official statements were predictably blurry. In its account of his meeting with Kerry, the ministry quoted Premier Li Keqiang as referring only to “those who stir up trouble on the peninsula only harm their own interests, like moving a stone only to drop it on one’s own foot.”

That was a near echo of President Xi Jinping’s own comment in a speech earlier this month that “no one should be allowed to throw the region, or even the whole world, into chaos for selfish gains” seen as much as a rebuke to the U.S. and its allies as to North Korea’s young leader, Kim Jong Un. The ministry’s account of Kerry’s meeting with Xi didn’t mention the Korean Peninsula even obliquely.

While China has grown more critical of North Korea since the latter’s third nuclear test in February, Beijing remains highly wary of pushing the hardline communist regime too far. China says it wants a Korean Peninsula free from nuclear weapons, but that all sides must play a role in that.

The stakes are high for China, with a potential conflict threatening its economic development and stability in the northeast along its long, meandering border with North Korea.

Beijing abhors the prospect of a pro-U.S. unified Korean state on its border as well as internal North Korean conflict that could spark an outflow of refugees.

China was already displeased by Kim’s lack of outreach and lack of concern for Beijing’s interests, and signed on to tighter U.N. sanctions following the North’s latest nuclear test in February. It’s also stepped up customs checks along their border, slowed some deliveries of equipment to the North and cracked down on suspect financial transactions by North Korean banks.

That’s had little apparent effect on Kim’s behavior, and he seems emboldened by China’s lack of a forceful response to past crises and Pyongyang’s perceptions of China’s fear of a collapse of the regime. While North Korea’s population is starving and impoverished, the leadership gets by on Chinese food and fuel, along with growing investment, and imports of North Korean iron ore and other raw materials.

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP Enterprise-Journal, McComb, Miss., on militant Islam a world danger: The world may never know for sure whether the Tsarnaev brothers acted alone in the Boston Marathon bombings.

It seems likely, judging from what’s been disclosed so far in the investigation, that they probably did — if you don’t count the advice they may have gotten on the Internet on how to construct the bombs or the encouragement they may have received from radicals in their religion.

Whether this was part of a broader conspiracy or not,

there’s a common thread that runs through almost all of these terrorist attacks over the past two decades: Militant Islam.

That’s difficult for some in politics, including President Obama, and the media to acknowledge.

Politically correct speech forbids blaming religions for the actions of a few who radicalize the beliefs of the group.

After interrogating Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on Monday, U.S. officials believe the brothers were motivated by their faith, apparently an antiAmerican, radical version of Islam. Another official called

them aspiring jihadists.

It is true that there are many peaceful Muslims in this country. It’s also true that there have been and are so-called Christians who distort the message of the Bible and commit violent acts.

But a major difference in Islam and Christianity is that Jesus Christ, the founder of Christianity, preached non-violence, and the New Testament clearly points that out.

The Koran, as interpreted by large groups, is not so clear on that. Rather there are too many who interpret it as encouraging holy war.

DOONESBURY

There’s no kind of guilt worse than ‘Twin Guilt’ Guilt.

It’s probably one of the most debilitating, yet motivating, feelings we, as humans, use in our lives.

There’s “Mommy Guilt” — that gnawing, nagging pull on your soul when you try to justify why you can’t magically come up with the thousands of dollars to take your kid to the one place on Earth he wants to go, but you can’t afford. For me, it’s Legoland, which is heavily advertised in the free Lego magazine my 9-year-old anxiously awaits each month. You know, the place he asks you if he can go each month as he stares at the “Free Admission” ticket to the park 1,000 miles away.

There’s “Daughter Guilt.” It motivates me to keep my yard mowed and myself out of jail. It’s one of the most powerful sources of guilt in human nature. It has served me well.

It’s usually projected with a parental stare. I hope I’ve inherited this skill to use on my darling son.

Then there’s “Sister Guilt.” My oldest sister has a pretty bad case of it. One can usually sense this type of guilt around the holidays.

“Is Mom mad at me for not coming home this year?” Big sister says around noon on Christmas Day. Luckily she’s saved by the fact she’s pursuing a doctorate

Melanie Yingst Troy Daily News Columnist degree in the nursing field. Her pursuit of a Ph.D totally trumps seasonal no-show guilt for years to come.

She’s the smart one in our bunch, that’s for certain.

Because I’m a twin, there’s not really a “Twin Guilt” factor for me.

This could probably explain why we argue as often as we do. I gave up caring about hurting her feelings around the age of 18 months when she stole my tricycle.

Recently Twin Megs did cash in her rare “guilt card” when she begged me to visit Cleveland.

“Please? I really miss you! I really want you to come up! We’ll go out and have fun in downtown Cleveland with Nancy!” Twin Sissy exclaimed.

Now, I love my sister’s best friend Nancy. I’m so happy my sister found one lone normal human being in her world of Supermoms and nursing nerds.

She pulled the Nancy Card, knowing I couldn’t say no to a “Night Out with Nancy.”

I immediately knew something was up.

There are just way too many exclamation points in this conversation for this to be truly about a recreational, sisterly visit.

So I dug a little deeper to see what was really going for her to insist on my presence for this urgent visit.

Me: “You know this is the biggest weekend for garage sales, so this better be good. I can’t afford a tank of gas to get up there and back, but you know if I find an old oak church pew, I’ll plunk down $200 for it if I come across one. Also, I’ve got lambs to feed. I can’t be just driving up for any old reason.”

Twin Megs: “No! I just want to see you. What time can you get here? We need to leave by 7 p.m. for the party. I’ll pay for your gas.

I just want you to come with us!”

Me: “So you want me to drive three hours up there just to go to a party? Megan, really, I don’t have time for this nonsense. I have a dog who needs me and two 4-H lambs that I can’t afford to die on my watch. You know this is the weekend of the best garage sales of the year. I am going to have to pass on this one.”

Twin Megs: “No! You HAVE to

come. It’s a birthday party for a doctor I work with. You remember me talking about Dr. Gxyaramarajiah? Remember me telling you all about Dr. G? It’ll be so fun. It’s at this club I really want to go to. Everybody will be there. Nancy, my friends from work … I’m sure there’ll be Cleveland Indian baseball players at this place. You’ll get to meet Alexis and there will be all the single doctors I know from Cleveland Clinic …”

Wait a second? Let’s weigh the options. The Velvet Room in Cleveland (the hottest watering hole in the city), full of MLB baseball players and Cleveland Clinic physicians. vs. thrifty moms on the prowl for dollar deals, mucking stalls full of lamb gunk and Shorty, my beloved dog, giving me the abandonment stare of shame as I leave for a weekend of fun.

Me: “I’ll be there by noon tomorrow. But I’m bringing the dog with me.”

This time, “Twin Guilt” beat “Mommy Guilt” by a long shot.

But you could fill an entire bar full of Major League Baseball players and single physicians, but it’ll never be able to trump “Dog Guilt.”

“Twin” Melanie Yingst appears on Fridays in the Troy Daily News.

She’s guilty as charged

Trustees invest $1M in new state program

BY MELANIE YINGST Staff Writer myingst@civitasmedia.com

CONCORD TWP.

Concord Township trustees submitted a letter to invest $1 million of general fund monies in the STAR Plus program at its rescheduled meeting Thursday.

According to township fiscal officer Pat Quillen, once the letter is received, the transfer should clear in three to five business days.

“We will go with the maximum and see how it goes,” Quillen said.

The STAR Plus program began April 2012 by state treasurer Josh Mandel and is open to government entities such as townships, school districts, cities and other political subdivisions.

The cash deposits have full FDIC insurance and must have a minimum of $500,000 deposit.

All deposits feature weekly liquidity with penalty free withdrawals.

The investment program pays more than traditional bank interest and the state’s other STAR Ohio program, Quillen said at the April 16 meeting.

Quillen said the new STAR Plus program pays 21 basis points and has a 0.21 percent interest rate compared to Star Ohio’s 0.06 percent interest rate.

Concord Township trustee Tom Mercer reported he met with city of Troy Fire Department Chief Chris Boehringer about how to obtain detailed information regarding response to the township’s fires and emergencies services.

Mercer reported that Boehringer claimed specific information is available to anyone in regards to how many firemen, what equipment and mutual aid is used when the city responds to an emergency by contacting the fire department office. “(Chief Boehringer) is more than willing to sit down with any of us, or come to our meetings — anything we needed,” Mercer said.

Mercer provided information about the Jan. 26 structure fire of a residence located on Eldean Road. Mercer said 13 firefighters, three engines as well as Covington mutual aid responded to the fire.

Mercer said the initial call to 9-1-1 said it was a chimney fire, but once fire officials responded, the fire had spread.

Trustee Sue Campbell said she’d be more than willing to obtain detailed reports herself in the future.

In previous meeting, Campbell had requested more detailed reports other than “call logs” as records for the township.

Campbell said she’d like to have detailed reports after voters passed a five-year, 3.7-mill levy for fire and EMS services provided by the city of Troy to the township in November 2012.

“I just felt that since the township is paying the money, we should be able to see what’s going on,” Campbell said.

Campbell said the 911 call sheets “were not specific enough” and only provided vague information such as the number of EMS calls and other monthly data.

Whidden said the fire department has his 100 percent cooperation in the future.

The trustees tabled a motion for the personnel policies and procedures manual draft for the next meeting due to a conflict of using the term “seasonal” versus “temporary” employees.

Road superintendent Neil Rhoades recommended the township advertise for bids for a full milling of township roads: Vista Ridge, Brookview and Boone Drive.

Rhoades obtained an estimate of a full milling project for approximately $186,416. Rhoades noted bids for paving projects historically come in under the initial estimate.

Rhoades recommended the full milling of the roads compared to a partial milling due to the curbs and potential flooding problems in the area if a full milling job is not completed.

Trustee Mercer asked where the funding for paving program for the streets would come from. Quillen said $167,000 was available in the gasoline, motor vehicle and road and bridges funds to pay for the project.

Mercer noted it would be the biggest expenditure for the township for fiscal year 2013.

Bill Whidden said the township had been approached by the Troy High School band boosters to raise funds for its trip to London next winter by collecting trash from the township roadways. Whidden said township employees have kept up with the cleaning of litter in the ditches.

Whidden said he does not feel comfortable allowing students doing that type of work.

Tom Mercer said he received a complaint about a residence on Fenner Road who has been burning trash and construction materials. Mercer said he contacted air pollution control and submitted the complaint.

The next regular meeting for Concord Township Trustees will be held at 10 a.m. May 21 at the Concord Township Building on Horizon West Court.

Tipp City school levy back on May ballot

percent local funding and 44 percent state funding.

That last number is rather fluid. According to Kronour, the state budget will not be finalized until the earliest, end of June, latest, August – and it goes into effect for this 2013-2014 school year.

Treasurer Joe Smith noted that under Governor John Kaisich’s new funding plan, Tipp Schools will receive no increase in funding from the state over the next two years.

“The bright side is that at least we are not receiving any cuts in funding, at this time,” he said in an earlier story.

However, financial issues arise not just from the set amount of money coming in, but the number of unfunded state mandates.

“It’s also totally incumbent upon different programming as far as things that are mandated,” Kronour said, referring to state curriculum requirements that come without the funds to complete them, such as testing for the third grade reading guarantee.

State requirements for teaching special needs students drive up prices to districts as well.

In Tipp, an average student costs the district

approximately $9,225 a year, according to the Ohio Department of Education’s Cupp Report. However, a special needs student could be $50,000-75,000 a year, Kronour said.

He noted that even though the number of special needs students may increase, the state funding per pupil does not.

Although the levy has separate accounting from the general fund, it can only be used for general fund expenditures. That mainly includes day-to-day operations and personnel costs (no major maintenance or permanent improvements).

If the levy passes, the district has promised to bring back a high school media specialist, high school guidance counselor and increase staffing in music, art and physical education.

The media specialist and guidance counselor would be full-time, Kronour said, and the specialty teachers would start at half-time, with possible increases to full-time if the need was there.

For Tipp City residents, the levy will be the lone option on the ballot May 7.

Safe schools Tipp City, Sidney representatives meet to discuss safety issues

BY CECILIA FOX For the Troy Daily News tdneditorial@civitasmedia.com School safety is a number one priority in Tipp City. Officials are exploring every option available to make local schools more secure, including weapons training for teachers.

Tipp City school board members, school administrators and police met with the superintendent of Sidney schools as well as the Shelby County Sheriff to discuss Sidney’s school safety measures.

The Sidney school board recently approved a safety plan that trains staff to form armed emergency response teams.

Shelby County Sheriff John Lenhart, Superintendent John Scheu and Sidney School Board member Bill Ankney made a presentation to Tipp City school officials about their new school safety plan.

“The purpose of this is just to learn.

We’re not committing to adopt Sidney’s security policy or changing our security policy at this point,” Board President Frank Maus explained.

Scheu outlined the district’s new security plan and Lenhart described the new emergency training program available to teachers throughout Shelby County.

Beginning next year, there will be armed reserve officers on contract through the sheriff’s office in each of the district’s seven schools.

Teachers who complete the concealed carry and emergency response class offered by the sheriff’s office will also play a part in school safety.

In an emergency situation, these teachers will form response teams led by the reserve officers to protect students.

The certified teachers will not be carrying weapons during the school day, but they will have access to biometric safes containing handguns in an emergency. Biometric safes scan fingerprints to open. The teachers on the response team will not be identified.

After a break in November, the Tipp City School levy is back on the ballot – with reduced millage and a new slogan.

The battle cry of the committee this time is “2,600 reasons to vote yes!,”referring to the 2,600 students in the district.

The levy that failed in August was a 5-year, 7.95mil levy. After a lot of backand-forth discussion, the board of education decided to put the additional tax levy on the May ballot at 4.93 mils and 4-year slot.

On the levy’s website is a breakdown of how that would affect taxpayers, ranging from approximately $75 a year for a $50,000 home to $452 for a $300,000 home. The website also includes separate applicable information for taxpayers and parents and a blog from the superintendent.

“The levy pays for a strong educational system that is synonymous with our community and a key driver in bringing people to Tipp City. We have an obligation to our students,” Superintendent Dr. John Kronour wrote in the most recent blog.

TIPP CITY Though the Sidney schools had other security measures in place, Scheu said they were unprepared for an active shooter situation. Their new plan is proactive, he said, not overreactive.

“If it can happen in an Amish school in Pennsylvania, it can happen in Sidney. If it can happen in Chardon, Ohio, it can happen in Sidney,” he said.

Lenhart said that while no safety plan is foolproof, he believes that the emergency response program will empower trainees and give them the tools they need to handle a crisis situation.

“Nobody wants guns in schools,” Lenhart said, “But we’re not in Kansas anymore.”

The training program, which the superintendent describes as “intensive,” teaches armed and unarmed tactics, dealing with suspects, and basic gunshot first aid. Trainees will also drill with AirSoft weapons.

The reserve officers are a “dream team” of retired cops with years of experience dealing with difficult situations, Lenahrt said. They will be paid about $17,000 a year with no benefits and will work every day that the students are in school. Lenhart said the officers could also function as aides, getting to know the students and staff.

Both Ankney and Scheu said that the new plan has been well received by the community.

“I’ve not heard one complaint about the plan,” Ankney said.

The only concern has been teachers carrying guns in the classroom, but once it becomes clear that this is not the case, people are more comfortable with the plan.

Tipp City school officials were impressed by the presentation and said that they would like to take more time to review this plan and other options.

No specific meeting date or action plan was set.

“It was a great learning experience,” Board member Scott Dixon said.

AP MOVIE REVIEWS • “Iron Man 3” — No matter how much of a scrap heap of metal-twisting mayhem the “Iron Man” franchise piles on (and it’s a lot), Robert Downey’s sheer charm his unsentimental, offhand yammering is the real superpower in Marvel’s trilogy. The latest follows not just “Iron Man 2” but the box-office busting “The Avengers.” These global blockbusters are more produced than directed, but it’s nevertheless fitting that Shane Black (“Kiss Kiss Bang Bang,” also with Downey) here inherits the helm from Jon Favreau, the director of the previous two. Black, with co-script writer Drew Pearce, squeezes in as much self-aware, winking wisecracks that give the film some zip. But in a fight between screwball irony and blockbuster bombast, the heavy-metal action unfortunately wins.

Downey’s billionaire Tony Stark (Iron Man) is pulled into a battle with the terrorist Mandarin (a bearded Ben Kingsley), who takes credit for a series of random bombings. Also in the bad guy mix is Aldrich Killian (Guy Pearce), an inventor turned military contractor whom Stark haphazardly jilted back in his partying years. When helicopter missiles collapse Stark’s Malibu estate into the sea, he’s separated from his companion Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) and forced to rebuild himself. PG-13 for sequences of intense sci-fi action and violence throughout, and brief suggestive content. 130 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four.

• “Love Is All You Need” — The message behind most romantic comedies is the simple-minded sentiment that love is all you need. So when Danish filmmaker Susanne Bier (“In a Better World,” ”After the Wedding”) takes that title for a departure from somber drama to romance, you might expect her to deliver it with some serious irony. Yet in Bier’s tale, it turns out love really is all you need. And like any old rom-com, it’s the just-add-water, instant mush variety of love that springs up between the unlikeliest of partners because, hey, you’re in the theater to see a love story.

This is several steps above the usual Hollywood romance, with nice low-key passion between Pierce Brosnan and Trine Dyrholm as prospective in-laws who connect during chaotic preparations for their children’s wedding. Bier and regular screenwriting partner Anders Thomas Jensen dress things up with gorgeous postcard images of Sorrento, Italy, lovely music, elegant production design and deeper complications and entanglements than we typically see in a screen fling.

It’s still standard stuff, though: mostly predictable, mostly gooey and mostly unlike anything resembling our own clunky tales of amour. R for brief sexuality, nudity and some language. 116 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four.

• “At Any Price” — The flowing Iowa cornfields of Ramin Bahrani’s sweeping Midwest drama of fathers and sons, farms and seed, have nothing on the amber waves of Zac Efron’s hair. As the race car-driving Dean, Efron attempts a classic American icon: the sweaty, sandy-haired, teenage trouble-maker. But the rebel role doesn’t suit Efron: He doesn’t have a lick of danger about him. In any case, this is Dennis Quaid’s movie. He stars as Dean’s father, Henry Whipple, a fake-smiling huckster trying to live up to the family business. His thousands of acres aren’t pastoral so much as the backdrop to the hulking modern machinery that drives his small empire, one fed by genetically modified seeds that he aggressively sells to other farmers.

TCT murder-mystery opens tonight at Barn in the Park

BY NATALIE KNOTH Staff Writer nknoth@civitasmedia.com The play may not be a household name, but the Troy Civic Theatre’s production of “The Late Edwina Black” is every bit the classic “Who done it?” tale. The murdermystery will be presented at 8 p.m. May 3-4 and 1011 as well as 4 p.m.

Sunday, May 5 at the Barn in the Park.

“Edwina Black was a crotchety sort of lady who had pretty vulgar tastes, but she was very wealthy,” explained Betty Scisson, who is directing the TROY spring production with Derek Dunavent. “She took to her bed and all of a sudden she died, and the doctor said since she died a sudden death, he feels uncomfortable with the death certificate.”

An autopsy is performed, which reveals that Edwina died of poisoning by arsenic. Her husband Gregory (Caleb McGill) is deemed the prime suspect, as he is assumed to be after the inheritance. But suspicion also falls on Edwina’s companion Lisa (SueAnn Wallace) and the maid (Terressa Knoch).

Inspector Martin (Steve Dietrick) is called in to find the murderer.

“There’s just a little humor, but it’s a pretty serious play where the husband and the mistress spend most of the time blaming each other, and the maid is getting enjoyment out of it. She’s pretty snarly,” Scisson said, adding, “The key to the show is not how she died, but who did it.”

Scisson said audiences with recognize the cast, as they are seasoned performers for Troy Civic Theatre. The cast also helped the crew build the set, which Scisson noted

Above, Nicole SueAnn Wallace portrays Lisa, Edwina’s companion, while Caleb McGill portrays Gregory, the widower, in a Troy Civic Theatre production of “The Late Edwina Black” co-directed by Derek Dunavent and Betty Scisson. Troy Civic Theatre closes its season with the production, which includes performances May 3, 4, 5, 10-11 at the Barn in the Park.

At right, Terressa Knoch portrays Ellen, the dedicated maid, while Steve Dietrick portrays Martin, the clever inspector.

“It’s been such a group effort and so wonderful,” she said. “Like I said, this cast is out of this world.

It’s been great.”

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Husband needs to work on these issues with you Dear Annie: My husband and I have a blended family with his two girls and my three sons. I am so grateful that we both took on this challenge.

We had some good times, and we had some bad times, and when I say bad, I mean horrible.

Our children are all adults now, and we are still butting heads over them, mostly my boys. He has given up on two of my sons because he says they don't respect him, not to mention some less than legal activity they decided to embark on in our home while we were on vacation.

But, Annie, I feel as if he has never really cared for them. I try to help them with rides or letting them wash clothes at our house or whatever I can do. People mature at different levels, and maybe I help too much, but they are my kids. At what point am I supposed to turn my back on them? My husband says that because I help them against his wishes, it means I love them more than him. That isn't true.

One son is homeless and has to look for a place to stay every night. That breaks my heart. My husband found him downstairs sleeping one morning and told me that I'd better get him out or he would call the police. He won't even allow me to let my son shower here.

I realize the boys need to make it on their own, but am I supposed to turn my back on them when they need help? At what point do you give up on your kids and choose your husband instead? I feel like such a horrible mom. — Worried for Them Dear Worried: Your husband should not be issuing ultimatums wherein you must choose between the man you love and the children you love. This is unfair and creates tremendous resentment. Your husband may have good cause to want the kids out of the house, but it's difficult to do when they have no place to go. How old are they? Do they have jobs? Would you temporarily assist with their rent if it got them out of the house? Are there substance-abuse issues that need treatment? Try Because I Love You (bily.org), and ask your husband to work with you on this.

Dear Annie: I am one of five siblings. My brother was married last fall in a small ceremony that was put together quickly so my mother could be there before she died.

He is having a celebration of his marriage later this summer, and the party is being held in another state on the day before my wedding anniversary.

My brother's party would require travel, hotel and meals.

My husband and I have already booked (and paid for) a nonrefundable weekend getaway and made arrangements with his parents to watch our kids. We did this three months before my brother sent out his save-thedate cards.

How do I break the news to my brother? I should add that I am rarely included in anything the rest of the family does, and I worry that if I miss this event, I will never be included in anything again. — Little Sis Dear Sis: Call your brother and let him know you have a conflict. Tell him you are heartbroken to miss his party and wish you could find a way out of your nonrefundable reservations, but it's not possible.

Then send him a lovely wedding gift to make up for your absence. These things happen.

There's nothing more you can do.

Dear Annie: This is for "N.N.," whose husband is depressed. Please tell her to have him tested for celiac disease.

Depression is one of the symptoms.

My husband was depressed for a long period of time and even threatened to take his life. We were finally able to determine that he had celiac disease.

Doctors are not that familiar with the symptoms. — Betty Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

YESTERDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Different seed brings different birds to the feeder Dear Heloise: I love birdwatching. Do you have any suggestions on how to attract more birds to my yard?

— Patti in Mississippi Patti, bird-watching is a wonderful way to start off the day or spend an afternoon. According to the National Bird-Feeding Society, there are several things you can do to attract birds to your yard. Here are some of the suggestions: • Use several different types of feeders and seed to attract more species.

• Always have fresh water available. Choose a birdbath that is shallow and not slippery.

• Try to reduce hazards such

Hints from Heloise Columnist as window collisions and predators.

• Offer alternative foods such as nectar, suet and fruits.

For more information, like which plants are best, visit the National Bird Feeding Society website, www.birdfeeding.org.

You also can print out a backyard bird checklist to keep track

of the birds that visit your yard.

— Heloise P.S.: I enjoy watching birds along our Texas coastline. The Roseate spoonbills are just beautiful!

TRAVEL HINT Dear Heloise: My family took a trip to the beach. Of course, the kids wanted to take pails, shovels and other toys with them to play with on the beach. Those things can take up a lot of space. So instead, we found a dollar store when we arrived and purchased inexpensive toys there. The kids had a blast playing with them. When it was time to go, we passed them on to another family stay-

ing near us. They didn’t cost a lot, so I didn’t feel guilty about wasting money, and it saved precious packing space. — Anne in Kansas LETTER OF LAUGHTER Dear Heloise: In regard to identifying your luggage, I have the usual black suitcase that everyone else seems to have. I bought some red-colored duct tape and a marker, and wrote “All mine and no one else’s” on the tape and put it on the front of the bag. I have yet to lose my luggage, and seeing my bag always makes people laugh and say: “What a good idea! Why didn’t I think of that?” — Martha, via email

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Saturday, May 4, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Later today, you might encounter objections about the way you are handling your money. Listen to the advice of someone older or more experienced.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You might feel cut off from others today, perhaps because you feel they are critical of you. Actually, this is not so. It’s just easy to feel gloomy today.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Don’t put yourself down about something, because this is just a passing influence. You have all the strengths and talents you had a week ago, right?

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) When talking to groups today, you will be focused on finding out what is wrong with something. Your critical instincts definitely are sharpened today.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Avoid farewells with parents and bosses today, because this will drag you down. Instead, focus on doing anything that gives you a sense of accomplishment.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) This is a good day to seek out a priest, minister or authority figure you respect in order to get this person’s advice. You will feel reassured if you get the opinion of someone else today.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Check with someone else before making important decisions about shared property, inheritances, debt, taxes and anything you own jointly with others.

Don’t make this decision alone today.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You might have to say goodbye to a friend or a loved one today. It’s best if you can postpone this. It’s easy to feel gloomy, so who wants to say goodbye?

(Not you.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a good day for heavy mental work that requires attention to detail and discipline. And believe me, you’ve got what it takes. (But do take frequent rests.)

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) If you are a parent or you work with children, try not to be critical of your kids today. Remember the advice of Goethe: “Criticism does much, but encouragement does more.”

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) This is the classic day to worry too much. Remember: “Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but gets you nowhere.”

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Take a look at your finances and banking, as well as the money coming in the money going out. What can you do to improve things?

YOU BORN TODAY Without intending to, you make a strong impression on others. You are warm, caring and always professional. People sense that you are stable and reliable (even though you are a risk taker). Your friendly exterior hides a steely resolve.

You are dedicated to your cause. Good news. Your year ahead might be one of the most powerful years of your life.

Dream big!

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Friday, May 3, the 123rd day of 2013. There are 242 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On May 3, 1973, Chicago’s 110story Sears Tower (now the Willis Tower) was topped out after two years of construction, becoming the world’s tallest building for the next 25 years.

On this date: • In 1802, Washington, D.C., was incorporated as a city.

• In 1913, Clorox had its beginnings as five entrepreneurs agreed to set up a liquid bleach factory in Oakland, Calif.

• One year ago: U.S. officials published online a selection of letters from Osama bin Laden’s last hideaway; the documents portrayed a network that was weak, inept and under siege and its leader seemingly near wit’s end about the passing of his global jihad’s glory days.

• Today’s Birthdays: Folk singer Pete Seeger is 94. Actress Ann B. Davis is 87. Actress Christina Hendricks (TV: “Mad Men”) is 38.

Actor Dule Hill is 38. Country singer Eric Church is 36. Dancer Cheryl Burke (TV: “Dancing with the Stars”) is 29. Soul singer Michael Kiwanuka is 26. Actress Jill Berard is 23.

• In 1916, Irish nationalist Padraic Pearse and two others were executed by the British for their roles in the Easter Rising.

• In 1933, Nellie T. Ross became the first female director of the U.S. Mint.

• In 1952, the Kentucky Derby was televised nationally for the first time on CBS; the winner was Hill Gail.

• In 1979, Conservative Party leader Margaret Thatcher was chosen to become Britain’s first female prime minister as the Tories ousted the incumbent Labor government in parliamentary elections.

The final piece of spire is hoisted to the roof of One World Trade Center, Thursday in New York.The piece will be added to the spire at a later date, capping off the tower at 1776 feet. the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks.

“It’s not just a construction site,” Plate said. “It’s truly a mission for all of us.”

With the additional 408 feet, the building would be the tallest in the U.S. and third-tallest in the world, although building experts dispute whether the spire is actually an antenna a crucial distinction in terms of measuring the building’s height.

Without the spire, One World Trade Center would actually be shorter than the Willis Tower in Chicago, which currently wears the crown of tallest building in the U.S. at 1,451 feet, not including its own antennas.

The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, a Chicago-based organization considered an authority on such records, says an antenna is something simply added to the top of a tower that can be removed. By contrast, a spire is something that is part of the building’s architectural design.

The tower is slated to open for business in 2014.

Tenants include the

magazine publisher Conde Nast, the government’s General Services Administration and

Vantone Holdings China Center, which will provide business space for international companies.

In our hearts your memory lingers, sweetly tender, fond and true.

There is not a day, dear Mother/Father, that we do not think of you.

Thank you for loving and sharing, for giving and for caring.

God bless you and keep you, until we meet again.

Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure.

You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.

Those we love we never lose, for always they will be, loved remembered, treasured, always in our memory.

It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone.

For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.

My heart still aches in sadness, my silent tears still flow.

For what it meant to lose you, no one will ever know.

Memory is a lovely lane, where hearts are ever true.

A lane I so often travel down, because it leads to you.

Oh how we wish he/she was here today, to see all the blessings we have.

Yet somehow you know that he/she is guiding us on our paths.

Tenderly we treasure the past with memories that will always last.

Remembering you on this day, comforted by so many memories.

In the hearts of those who loved you, you will always be there.

If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever. .

Loved always, sadly missed.

Forever remembered, forever missed.

Suffer little children to come unto me.

Trojans (finally) run-rule Wayne in makeup Staff Reports

MIAMI COUNTY

TROY —It was a long time coming.

Amber Smith was masterful for five innings and the Troy offense unloaded, putting pressure on Wayne constantly and never letting up in a 10-0 runrule victory Thursday in a twicedelayed makeup game at Market Street Diamond.

Alex Wilt was 2 for 3 with two stolen bases and two RBIs, Smith was 1 for 2 with a stolen base and Jessica Snay was 1 for 1 with a steal as the Trojans (812) stole six bases on the day.

“At this point in the season, you’ve got to have bunt-and-

runs, doubles steals, and it was time to start working on those,” Troy coach Megan Campbell said. “We had heads-up baserunning today. The moment Wayne held onto the ball a little too long, the girls took off.”

Meanwhile, Smith struck out seven and walked none, giving up only two hits in the game as the defense helped her post the shutout.

“In the first inning, they had a girl on third. Later on, they had second and third — and we didn’t let them score,” Campbell said. “The defense held it down tonight. It’s all coming together.”

McKinney gives Vikings win on game’s final play

BY JOSH BROWN Sports Editor jbrown@civitasmedia.com

MIAMI COUNTY Troy was swept by GWOC North leader Butler earlier this week — including a 14-3 runrule loss on Tuesday. Now after losing to the GWOC Centralleading Elks, Troy (12-8) faces Lebanon today, which leads the GWOC South.

“We need to play teams like this because right now our focus has to be on the playoffs,” Welker said.

Wood gave up seven hits, four earned runs and walked one while striking out five against the Elks in a complete game.

“I can’t compliment Wood enough with how well he threw today,” Welker said. “They were hitting .398 as a team. He’s only a sophomore, and this was great experience and a great game for him.”

Nick Sanders hit a two-run double in the seventh inning, Greg Johnson was 2 for 3 with an RBI and Alex Magoteaux was 2 for 4 as Troy actually outhit Centerville 8-7 in the game.

“We were down 5-0 after the fifth, and we didn’t put our heads

Sliding, standing up … only one “S” word mattered to Miami East’s Colton McKinney.

Safe.

McKinney scored from third on a close bang-bang play, a oneout grounder by Garrett Mitchell, giving the Vikings a thrilling come-from-behind walk-off victory over a talented Bradford Railroaders team Thursday at home in Cross County Conference play, 4-3.

CASSTOWN “I was just running as hard as I could. I don’t really remember what I was thinking,” McKinney said.

The Viking fans in attendance and coach Barry Coomes were all thinking the same thing.

“I always want my guys to slide in that situation,” Coomes said. “If he slides, he’s in there easy. It’s not even a close play.”

McKinney’s wheels got him on base in the first place. After the Vikings (14-4, 7-1) had tied

“Moral victory” is probably not a term the Troy Trojans care to use.

But Thursday’s loss to stateranked Centerville is as close as it gets.

Trenton Wood pitched a solid game against a potent lineup and Troy rallied from a big deficit to make it a ballgame, but the 19-1 Elks still had enough to hang on for a 5-3 victory at home in a makeup game Thursday.

“We’re never happy with a loss. But we can take some good things out of this game and move forward,” Troy coach Ty Welker said. “We saw a really good baseball team today, and that’s our goal — we want to be a really good baseball team. We can be a really good baseball team. And we need to compete with teams like this to get there.”

In fact, Troy is taking a tour of the best the Greater Western Ohio Conference has to offer this week.

Oaks wins marathon match, Troy falls Staff Reports

MIAMI COUNTY

TROY — Three hours later, all the work paid off for Luke Oaks.

The Troy sophomore won a threehour, three-set war with Beavercreek’s Trunt Hayden at first singles Thursday, battling his way to a 2-6, 6-3, 7-6 (8-6) victory for the Trojans’ only win in a 4-1 loss to the Beavers.

“This was another big win for Luke. Hayden’s another one of the better players in the area,” Troy coach Mark Goldner said.

And it was a back-and-forth match the whole way.

After Hayden cruised in the first set, Oaks did the same in the second to answer. And even in the third set alone, control of the match went one way then the other.

“Luke was actually up 5-3 looking to close it out, but then he went down 6-5,” Goldner said. “He held serve to take it to the tiebreaker, then he was down 4-1 in that. He got it back to 6-all with Hayden serving, won that point and then served it out for the win.”

Troy’s other singles spots battled,

as well, but couldn’t get over the hump.

At second singles, Chris Schmitt lost to Peter Xue 4-6, 6-2, 6-2. At third singles, Jesse Wright lose to Eric Carmona 6-4, 6-4.

At first doubles, Matt Alexander and Ian Stutz lost to Matt Almazan and Kiean Zankat 6-1, 6-2. At second doubles, Hidekazu Asami and Matt Schmitt lost to Brandon Chong and Damennick Henry 6-2, 6-0.

Troy (12-4), which had won eight straight matches entering the day, takes on Xenia Monday.

Tippecanoe 5, Greenon 0 ENON — Tippecanoe remained

undefeated in Central Buckeye Conference play after another easy win on Thursday, shutting out Greenon 5-0.

At first singles, Sam Bollinger won 6-0, 6-0. At second singles, Jacob Belcher won 6-1, 6-0. At third singles, Phillip Bullard won 6-1, 6-2.

At first doubles, Adam Southers and Michael Keller won 6-1, 6-0. At second doubles, Jon Lin and Travis Roock — playing in his first varsity match — won 6-1, 7-6.

Tippecanoe, now 15-1 overall and 14-0 in the CBC, travels to Kenton Ridge Tuesday.

Miami East 10, Bradford 0 CASSTOWN — A three-run home run by Paige Kiesewetter opened up the flood gates Thursday as Miami East run-ruled visiting Bradford 10-0 in Cross County Conference play.

“We were up 3-0 going into the fifth. We started it off with a walk and a couple of singles, and then Paige hit a three-run homer,” Miami East coach Brian Kadel said. “That

kind of took the wind out of their sails.”

Lindsey Brookhart was also 2 for 3 with a double and three RBIs, Madison Linn was 2 for 2 with a double and Olivia Edgell was 2 for 3.

Kiesewetter struck out 10 and gave up three hits on the mound to record the shutout.

“It was a good game going into the fifth,” Kadel said. “(Haley) Patty threw a good game for them and they were making plays.

We just hit a couple of hard shots.”

Mitchell then hit a grounder to short, and Bradford’s Bryce Arnett quickly fired the ball home.

Catcher Jake Cline attempted to swipe a tag at the runner’s chest behind him after he caught the ball, but McKinney’s foot touched first, and the Vikings celebrated.

“It’s great,” McKinney said. “We really needed this win.”

“We were fortunate to get this one — and the one the other night,” Coomes said. “That’s two kind-of ugly ones in a row.”

“Damien came in and did another great job in relief on short notice,” Coomes said. “He just shows such great composure for a freshman.”

Despite the tough loss, Bradford (14-5, 3-4) didn’t have much to hang its head about.

T.J. Pullins threw a strong game, giving up only five hits, walking one and striking out four in going the distance. And the defense — despite three errors which led to three unearned runs — made some huge plays in clutch situations to keep the Vikings from pulling too far ahead early.

“T.J. threw a heck of a game,” Bradford coach Shane Snyder said. “This was probably his third time on the mound this season, and it was probably the best game he’s thrown. And we made some great catches in the outfield in big situations tonight.

The

defense helped him out at times.

“We can’t make those errors early on and let ourselves get behind, and we’ve got to learn how to finish games. Out of our four league losses, this was the third that came in the seventh or eighth inning.

We made some great plays, too, though. You take the good with the bad.”

Miami East took a 2-0 lead in the first inning, scoring on a pair of errors — one of which directly plated a run, and another that led to an RBI infield single by Dylan Kinnison with the bases loaded and two outs. But Pullins caught the next batter looking to keep the score from getting worse.

The the ‘Roaders answered with two in the top of the second. An RBI sac fly by Paul Chapman with the bases loaded cut the lead in half, but Miami East catcher Michael Fellers then picked the runner of second. A walk

put runners on first and second with two outs, though, and a double by Arnett brought in the tying run.

Bradford took the lead in the top of the third on an RBI single by Austin Lear, then both pitchers settled in and started cruising.

While Mackesy didn’t allow Bradford another baserunner the entire game, Pullins set down the next eight straight Vikings before an error in the bottom of the fifth led to the game-tying RBI single by Fellers — which set up McKinney’s heroics in the seventh.

“Give Bradford credit.

They made some great plays,” Coomes said. “Kirk getting hurt kind of had us start out flat after that, but the kids stayed with it and found a way to pull it out.”

Tippecanoe 7, Northwestern 0 (8) SPRINGFIELD — After seven innings without a run, Tippecanoe more than made up for it in extras.

Carter Langdon hit an RBI triple to open the flood gates in the top of the eighth inning Thursday at Northwestern, breaking open a scoreless tie as the Red Devils finished off a 7Central Buckeye 0 Conference crossover win.

Cole Quillen got the win, pitching seven shutout innings and striking out 11. Cameron Johnson — who was 3 for 5 at the plate — pitched the eighth.

“Cole pitched a great game,” Tippecanoe coach Bruce Cahill said. “He didn’t walk anybody and gave up three hits. He just had great control.”

Austin Hadden was 3 for 3 with three stolen bases, Brad Bruns was 2 for 3 and Ben Hughes was 2 for 5 as the Devils (18-4, 11-2) finally found a way to break through in the eighth.

Caps knock off Rangers

Brooklyn holds on, forces Game 7

WASHINGTON (AP) — Alex Ovechkin’s franchise-record 31st career playoff goal got the Capitals started before less-heralded teammates Marcus Johansson and Jason Chimera scored 46 seconds apart, and Washington beat the New York Rangers 3-1 Thursday night in Game 1 of their first-round series.

Ovechkin, a two-time MVP who led the NHL with 32 goals this season, crashed the net to score on a power play about seven minutes into the second period to tie the game. Carl Hagelin had put New York ahead 1-0 in the first period the only puck that made it past Braden Holtby, who finished with 35 saves.

Game 2 of the best-ofseven series is Saturday in Washington.

It’s the third consecutive season these two teams are facing each other in the playoffs and the fourth time in five years.

The Rangers eliminated the Capitals in seven games in the second round last season.

Senators 4, Canadiens 2 MONTREAL — Craig Anderson made 48 saves in a spectacular goaltending performance in Game 1. Jakob Silfverberg and Marc Methot scored early in the third period to lift the Senators into the lead.

Game 2 set for Friday night at the Bell Centre.

Erik Karlsson and Guillaume Latendresse also scored for the Senators, who were outshot 50-31 but saw Anderson easily win the goaltending duel with Carey Price, who was beaten twice through the pads.

Rene Bourque and Brendan Gallagher replied for Montreal, which set a team record for shots in a regulationtime playoff game.

Montreal center Lars Eller was wheeled off on a stretcher bleeding heavily from the nose and was taken to a hospital with what the team said were head and facial injuries after he was caught with a shoulder to the face on an open-ice hit from Senators defenseman Eric Gryba.

CHICAGO (AP) — Deron Williams, Brook Lopez and Joe Johnson each scored 17 points, and the Brooklyn Nets again avoided elimination, beating the short-handed Chicago Bulls 95-92 Thursday to tie their firstround series at 3.

The series goes back to Brooklyn for Game 7 on Saturday. The winner gets Miami in the second round.

The Bulls hung in until the end even though they were missing Luol Deng and Kirk Hinrich.

A layup by Nazr Mohammed cut the Nets’ lead to 93-92 with 25.2 seconds remaining.

Nate Robinson then fouled Andray Blatche, who had missed a free throw only moments earlier. This time, he hit both to make it a three-point game with 19.2 seconds left.

The Bulls had a chance to tie it, but Marco Belinelli missed a 3-pointer and Joakim Noah stepped out of bounds with about six seconds left.

Chicago still had a chance, though.

Noah tied up Williams after the inbounds, resulting in a jump ball with 3.6 seconds left.

Johnson controlled the ball, and the Nets hung on.

Gerald Wallace added

15 points as Brooklyn won its second straight.

Only eight NBA teams have come back from a 3-1 deficit to win a best-of-7 series, but the Nets are in position to do just that.

It helped that Hinrich missed his second straight game with a bruised left calf and that Deng was sidelined with flu-like symptoms, forcing the Bulls to shuffle their lineup.

Poll: Redskins shouldn’t change name WASHINGTON (AP) — It’s been a rough offseason for the Washington Redskins, and not just because of the knee injury to star quarterback Robert Griffin III. The team’s nickname has faced a new barrage of criticism for being offensive to Native Americans.

Local leaders and pundits have called for a name change. Opponents have launched a legal challenge intended to deny the team federal trademark protection. A bill introduced in Congress in March would do the same, though it appears unlikely to pass.

But a new Associated Press-GfK poll shows that nationally, “Redskins” still enjoys wide support.

Nearly four in five Americans don’t think the team should change its name, the survey found.

Only 11 percent think it should be changed, while 8 percent weren’t sure and 2 percent didn’t answer.

Although 79 percent favor keeping the name, that does represent a 10 percentage point drop from the last national poll on the subject, conducted in 1992 by The Washington Post and ABC News just before the team won its most recent Super Bowl. Then, 89 percent said the name should not be changed, and 7 percent said it should.

The AP-GfK poll was conducted from April 1115. It included interviews

with 1,004 adults on both land lines and cellphones.

It has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.9 percentage points.

Several poll respondents told The AP that they did not consider the name offensive and cited tradition in arguing that it shouldn’t change.

“That’s who they’ve been forever. That’s who they’re known as,” said Sarah Lee, a 36-year-old stay-at-home mom from Osceola, Ind. “I think we as a people make race out to be a bigger issue than it is.”

But those who think the name should be changed say the word is obviously derogatory.

“With everything that Native Americans have gone through in this country, to have a sports team named the Redskins come on, now. It’s bad,” said Pamela Rogal, 56, a writer from Boston. “Much farther down the road, we’re going to look back on this and say, ‘Are you serious?

Did they really call them the Washington Redskins?’ It’s a no-brainer.”

Among football fans, 11 percent said the name should be changed the same as among non-fans.

Among nonwhite football fans, 18 percent said it should change, about double the percentage of white football fans who oppose the name.
